the problem is is the way we have done it, they do not pay tax. you have to pay tax. and the employer would pay the tax. a ford are did not pay because it will not be here -- foreigner does not pay because they will not be here long. but we did not have the employer pay either. if the employer hires you, you will have to pay 15 percent more. why would anyone hire american when you can hire foreigners and pay them 15% less? with high unemployment, is the sticking point for a lot of people. a lot of little things like that within our immigration system that should be tweaked and never are. >> having immigrants and america can be very valuable to our economy. >> immigrants create jobs, create businesses, pay taxes. even those that are of -- not documented, it will pay a wide range of taxes. >> your testimony was that immigration actually saved new york, stimulation of the economy. can you briefly describe how that worked? >> i cannot speak with authority on any place outside of the five boroughs of new york city. i can tell you we think we have roughly 500,000 undocument

it used to be in 1997 that the total tax revenue raised from the corporate tax, income tax, and the consumption tax was 41 trillion yen, but in the following year, it was reduced down to 37 trillion yen. we hope it would add another five trillion yen to the retina. instead we lost four trillion yen. >> speaking in ja artyast year the ruling was able to strike an agreement, 18 provisionse included. have d.c. first of all to pick up the economy, otherwise there is no way the consumption tax would take place. whether to do it will be decided by october. if we end up having picked up an economy by then, we can raise the tax, but if it does not look that well then, the timing of the raising of the tax will be deferred to a later date. i am sure in this kind of response we have been seriously considering the implications of the tax increase trade you asked me if i could make a decision right now to say definitely that taxation will be raised, stage we cannot say that definitely. we have to allow more time to make sure that the economy will really get better. then the judgment will be made definitely.
